I watched The Insiders this morning, where Peter Hartcher thinks Porter having sick leave is actually his boss Soot giving him an opportunity to resign instead of being fired.

I think that might also be the case for Linda Reynolds.

Disparaging everyone again, mostly ad hominem, why?

You pontificate on your astuteness, always ends up being an attack. This is especially true when people provide information you zealously guard against.

You obviously can’t comprehend and don’t understand the difference between my and others comments. OLO is primarily for article authors to submit articles. Remember it’s still their OPINION. One you need to consider and respond with cogent, factual comments. Secondly you are entitled to respond to comments by others.

Why does It always, always end up being an ad hominem attack...why, please explain?

You require additional education if you want any credibility. Perhaps it’s too late, you never learn. I think I might know why though! You are always right, right! Never wrong just right. Rarely do comments get rational non partisan, unbiased responses from you. Then again I must be wrong, sorry. Why? Because you’re always right, right? !-)

You’re the ignoramus. Your blatant reliance on personal attacks against anyone and everyone when they comment on this website is in the main, insulting. Can’t you see it? Guess not, I suppose you’re right, again!

I am unfortunately down in your sewer again, stooping to your level, obviously lower than a snakes arse...am I allowed to write that? Steelereflux will know, he’s always right you know!

Grow up Steel, Aluminium, Copper whatever you think you are? (Must be Copper, aren’t they policeman, they’re always right too, apparently). Geez that was low wasn’t it, How do I know?, because I stooped and I’m under that snake again with Copper. It’s getting monotonous and I don’t like the smell down here.

By the way Copper you are often WRONG. Yep I said it, loudly too, Got it yet? Of course not?

Ah to hell with this, I’m wasting my time...you win, you’re right of course.

Everyone, sorry that was a waste of your time wasn’t it? Mmm, I’m not sure now! I might be wrong, Oops look out, here comes Copper!

As for Porter, chill out, we will know soon enough.
Galen :-)

Steelreflux, I mean Copper, and please everyone else you must read my previous post.

Turns out I was wrong...again, I told everyone you were on your way, must have been someone else I spotted, maybe Aluminium, who knows? Wrong again, sorry, again.

Now I see Copper, uh oh it’s that snake again, i must be going blind and I’m always wrong, sorry. I’m outta here, again.

Could be wrong though! Yep now I’m sure of it. Why? Ask Copper, and not the snake

;-))

Dear Galen,

Why are you sooking? It seems I hadn't been speaking to you at all in this thread.

I'm really not sure what you have to complain about. It seems your problem is that I seem to be right most of the time. Sorry mate, you are going to have to live with that. I can't really go about being wrong just to please you now can I?

Have you just heard the latest about Soot not telling Parliament that Phil Gaetjens had told him the internal investigation had been postponed.

BATTLE STATIONS . . . . . BATTLE STATIONS

ENSIGN PORTER TO THE BRIDGE . . . . . CAPTAIN JOSH TO THE BRIDGE

THIS IS YOUR ADMIRAL SPEAKING . . . . ALL HANDS ON DECK

I assume we all saw Soot in tears on TV yesterday as he explained that the lewd and bizzare sexual deviancy that is being displayed within LNP ranks is really a UNIVERSAL PROBLEM.

Yes, that's right, it's a universal problem. And we're all the blame.

So stop focussing on the LNP and start looking at everyone else: You, me, the neighbour's cat, because it really has nothing to do with the LNP.

Good, we all now know who is at fault: it's us and everyone else . . . . definitely not people in the LNP ranks.

Thank God for that. Now we can put this all behind us and forget it ever happened and just move on and let Soot and the Boyz get back to doing what big blokes in the LNP do . . . . . even if it means masturbating over someone's desk and video recording it.
